(E,R,R)-5-Alkylidene-2-tert-butyl-6-methyl-1,3-dioxan-4-ones: Preparation from (R)-3-Hydroxybutbutyric Acid, Cuprate Additions and Hydrolyses to 3-Hydroxycarboxylic Acids with Chiral Secondary Alkyl Substituents in the 2-Position

Li enolates of (R,R)-2-tert-Butyl-6-methyl-1,3-dioxan-4-one add to aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes with relative topicity Re,Re (2:1 to 10:1, 9 examples).The title compounds are obtained from these aldol adducts by dehydration through mesylates (5 example
